Comment:

 In [attachment:28650.partial.diff], a patch that builds upon with in
 #28709:

  * Export to JS the Customizer construct being deep-linked
  * Short-circuit `embed()` if panel/section/control already embedded
  * Add `deferred.ready` to `Panel`, `Section`, `Control`; embed when
 initialized
  * Focus on a panel/section/control when ready
  * Wait to autofocus on panel/section/control until element is embedded
 and preview has loaded. Use an animation of 0 until the preview loads.
  * When focusing on panel/section/control, scroll into view
  * Use `?autofocus[section]=colors` pattern for query param

 Now you can direct link to the widgets panel from the widgets admin page
 via: {{/wp-admin/customize.php?autofocus[panel]=widgets}}

 @celloexpressions: Caveat being that the panel positioning is currently a
 bit finicky, especially regarding the `margin-top` and scroll position.
 But that's really an issue in #28709.
